Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Shu Qiyi, supported by Shu Yi, walked towards the ward door with his cane.
Almost the instant the two approached the door, it was pushed open again.
The person who pushed open the door was Wei Bo, who looked anxious and spoke in a hurried tone.
"Grandpa, Chuanran is awake! He,"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than another series of hurried footsteps sounded in the corridor.
Shu Qiyi hurried out of the ward and watched as all the medical staff ran towards Shu Chuanran's ward. He frowned, then quickly followed, asking Uncle Wei as he went.
"What's going on? Why are so many doctors going there?"
Seeing this, the bodyguards quickly came to the three of them and explained in a low voice.
"Sir, Young Master Chuanran just woke up and found that his leg was seriously injured. He also heard from the doctor that he might have to use a wheelchair in the future. He can't accept the fact and is throwing a tantrum in the ward. Even the Third Miss can't persuade him."
As they spoke, the three of them arrived at Shu Chuanran's hospital room. Before Wei Bo could even open the door, Shu Yi could already hear angry shouts coming from inside.
"Get out! All of you get out! Get out of here!"
"Brother! Calm down! Don't be like this! The doctor only said it's possible! We can definitely cure you! Don't get agitated! You're still injured!"
Besides Shu Qianxin's anxious voice, there was also the doctor's comforting words in my ear.
"Young Master Chuanran, please calm down! Because the wound is so deep, we have done our best to save your leg. Don't get agitated now, as it will only worsen the situation!"
With a creak of the handrail, the door was pushed open by Wei Bo. Shu Chuanran was taken aback when he saw Shu Yi standing beside Shu Qiyi.
A subtle, ambiguous emotion flickered in his usually indifferent black eyes. He bent his neck and hurriedly tucked his left leg, which had been exposed outside the blanket, back under it.
Noticing his series of subtle movements, Shu Yi pursed her lips and then looked away.
"What are you doing, child? You just woke up, what are you making a fuss about?" Concerned about Shu Chuanran's wound, Shu Qiyi instructed the doctor to give him a thorough examination as soon as possible. Then, he comforted Shu Qianxin, "Don't cry, your brother will be alright."
Taking the tissues from Uncle Wei and confirming that Shu Chuanran's emotions had stabilized, Shu Qianxin took Shu Yi's arm and said, "Second sister, come with me outside to wash my face, okay? Let Grandpa talk to my brother."
After receiving a signal from Shu Qiyi, Shu Yi followed Shu Qianxin and turned to leave the ward.
As they walked down the corridor leading to the restrooms in the distance, neither of them spoke.
Even though they are now officially sisters, the complex emotions between them seem to prevent them from being truly honest with each other.
Accompanying Shu Qianxin into the restroom, Shu Yi leaned against the door frame and chose to close her eyes and rest.
The upscale private hospital wasn't as noisy as the public hospital, and it was also located on a special floor. Apart from the sound of water lingering in Shuyi's ears, there was hardly any footsteps to be heard in the corridor outside the restroom.
When the sound of water stopped, Shu Yi opened her eyes and met Shu Qianxin's gaze, who was staring at her face.
"What's wrong?" she asked softly.
Perhaps it was to help her injured brother, or perhaps it was out of hope that a miracle would happen in this world.
Her gaze lingered on Shu Yi's exceptionally beautiful face, and even though she knew the answer, Shu Qianxin couldn't help but ask.
"Sister Yi, do you like my brother?"
"I don't like it," Shu Yi answered decisively.
Having received the expected answer, Shu Qianxin smiled bitterly, her eyes also streaked with bitterness.
"I know that miracles don't happen in this world. Sister Yi, please don't blame me. I just want to find out the truth for my brother."
"I understand," Shu Yi nodded in agreement. "I don't blame you."
"Since you don't blame me, can you also not blame your brother?" Biting her lip, Shu Qianxin stared intently into Shu Yi's calm eyes, as if trying to find something in his emotionless black pupils.
“My brother only went racing with Youye because he likes you so much. Now they are both seriously injured, and my brother even broke his leg. Sister Yi, could you please talk to Grandpa and ask him not to blame my brother?”
Having said that, as if she had made up her mind, Shu Qianxin wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, her face filled with unbearable guilt.
“You were about to get married to Brother Youye, and this happened. I’m so sorry. Grandpa asked me a lot of questions before. Even if I helped my brother keep it a secret, Grandpa would definitely have guessed that my brother likes you.”
"If Grandpa gets angry and kicks my brother out, I'll have no choice but to go with him."
Before Shu Yi could speak, Shu Qianxin hurriedly expressed her opinion.
“If we are really going to be kicked out by Grandpa, could you please talk to him and ask him to let us go after my brother’s condition stabilizes? In my current state, kicking him out would be like sending him to his death.”
Hearing her overly urgent tone, Shu Yi sighed silently in her heart, her feelings a mixture of emotions.
For the sake of her older brother Shu Chuanran, Shu Qianxin did everything she could to ask and say.
After being taken back to the ancestral home, Shu Yi didn't have much contact with Shu Qianxin.
Recalling her first encounter with Shu Qianxin at the Kabu Santo Hotel, she thought about how Shu Qianxin was clearly terrified but still had the audacity to come and negotiate with her, and even brazenly said that she would give Zhang Youye to her.
Looking back now, she was undoubtedly instigated by Qin Zhi, or perhaps she dared to utter illogical nonsense to Shu Chuanran because she was considering her future with him.
Putting aside this unpleasantness, upon closer reflection, aside from being a bit timid and delicate, Shu Qianxin would come over and chat with Shu Yi when she was hospitalized.
Even after they moved back to their ancestral home, Shuyi would sometimes hear from Tingli that the Third Miss had given her another small teapot that she had made herself.
Apart from that, Shu Qianxin has not done anything that is morally reprehensible.
Compared to Qin Miyou, who dared to instigate others to kidnap her, Shu Qianxin in front of her looks much cuter.
Shu Yi walked up to her, gave her a smile, and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa won't kick you out, and you don't need to worry about the Zhang family either, I'll explain."
"As for Chuanran liking me, I will have a good talk with him when the time is right."
Upon hearing this almost affirmative answer, Shu Qianxin could not hide her excitement, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
Before Shuyi could react, she had already stretched out her arms and hugged the woman standing opposite her tightly.
"Sister Yi, thank you so much!"
“I understand your feelings for Yuno-nii, and I will definitely persuade my brother to let go.”
"It's good that you understand." Shu Yi gently patted Shu Qianxin's back and took the initiative to leave the embrace. "You and Chuanran are both members of the Shu family now. After I marry into the Zhang family, you must stay with Grandpa and not have any disloyal thoughts towards the Shu family. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
"I understand." Shu Qianxin nodded emphatically. "Don't worry, Second Sister, I know my surname."
“I used to follow my brother wherever he was, but now that my grandfather is getting older, I will take good care of him.”
